For REALTORS, the new year never really begins on new year's day, but really begins 2 - 3 months prior. If you are waiting to implement your planning for the new year on January 1st, then chances are, you are probably already behind. All is not lost though. My suggestion is that if you haven't yet implemented your plan, you work out a 9 - 10 month plan, and begin implementing it right now. Financial success is important, but one of the ways that financial success is achieved is through psychological success, and psychological success is achieved through completion of a series of smaller goals - hitting all of your daily numbers.
Being a lead generating machine is about controlling those daily numbers and having success with those numbers. Success with those numbers affords you success with the overall goals, but we know that nothing in this business happens overnight, so we start a bit earlier and allow some time for those daily, lead-generating activities to gain some traction. So give your ego a chance and don't back it into a corner when it comes to your financial goals; start your plan early, be disciplined, focused and patient, and you will achieve the goals that you've set forth.
When did you start implementing your 2008 plan?

That is so true. In October is when I sat down and looked at my goals for 2008. Nothing in this business is overnight, so it's about planning ahead.
